I started using the inserts in late August, and already have noticed a difference. I had been using custom-made inserts but realized they were not completely working the way they should. These inserts fit so much more shoes than the others did, to which I am grateful. It has taken me a little while...

by Adri Sahagun • December 12, 2017I’m a nurse, I work between 10 and 14 hours a day. Sometimes longer, sometimes less. But I’m on my feet all day usually. Over the years my feet have hurt and ached and were totally tired at the end of the day. I’ve tried the Dr. Scholl’s and the inserts of other things and the shoes and nothing helped. Until I came across the M100’s.

I have a herniated disc, as well as a bulging disc in my lower back. I had been fighting excruciating pain for a while and wearing a back brace at work, and sometimes even at home to try and alleviate some of the pain, because it never would go away completely, no matter what I did. I was also taking 800 MG of ibuprofen every 6 hours, and even that wasn't helping. My doctor prescribed different meds for me that I did not want to take, and I even had shots in my back. I decided to try Protalus...

I was doing great, until I developed both plantar fasciitis and achilles tendinitis and was barely able to walk without pain.

by Adri Sahagun • December 06, 2017I was totally at my wits end with the pain in my foot and I thought Protalus would be my last option next to surgery. I injured my foot when I stepped on a toy and pierced the main nerve in my arch and Hyperextended my toes and the top of my foot. The jolt upon impact was nothing like I have ever felt. It was the most horrific electric shock that traveled all the way to my brain in a second. I was left with a foot that no longer felt anything but constant PAIN and felt like I was walking on shards of glass. My knees started aching, parts of my legs felt hot and on fire, and my right hip throbbed. I tried multiple kinds of pain cream, a cortisone shot, boots, arch supports, compression socks, etc... but it was only as a last resort that I tried Protalus in a desperate attempt to save my foot.

Yes, I have given these inserts a rating of 5. I had PF for over a year, but that is not why I now wear them. I have tried two other types of inserts one were Perfect Feet, and the other an insert purchased from my chiropractor ... The insert from my chiropractor ( I quit going) caused me hip pain and caused an off gait. The insert over rotated my left foot. I since have had ankle discomfort and low back pain. I visited a podiatrist who suggested " Custom made Orthotics. The cost would have...

Patented Technology Makes It Possible
The difference lies in our patented TRI-Planar technology. Other insole companies place a stump under the arch and call it support. Our insoles focus on the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms, designed to help your body maintain a neutral ankle joint position, while still allowing full ranges of healthy movement. Proper joint alignment improves movement efficiency, reduces fatigue, and prevents injury to help you do what you love.
Reduced Risk of Injury
The bones of the ankle and heel are most stable when they are positioned in alignment. If they shift away from a center alignment, they become less stable.
Imagine pressure being placed on those unstable structures over and over again while you walk, run, or work. That is where the injuries can take place.
Injuries can present as chronic pain in the foot, knees, hips, and back. They may also include acute injuries such as an ankle sprain.
Keeping your hindfoot in alignment allows not only your bones but also the surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments to properly handle the pressure placed on them from your feet through your back.
Better Balance
Your ankles and feet work together to manage how weight is distributed as you move
If your heels and ankles are not in their proper positions, they cannot properly distribute weight and this may lead to a less stable walking motion.
When your ankles and heels are out of alignment, your muscles, ligaments, and tendons often have to step in to ensure proper alignment and balance.
When these muscles become fatigued, they may not be able to handle the task properly and you become more likely to fall or become injured.
Increased Energy Efficiency
As you walk and move, your kinetic energy moves from your feet up through your body.
This energy can be seen when walking in sand. Sand kicks up behind you with each step. It is moved by the energy created when you move your foot.
Fatigued muscles don't pass as much of that energy onto the next structure. That is why walking in sand is tiring; energy is being lost and your muscles become fatigued.
An aligned kinetic chain allows the highest quantity of energy to be transferred up through your body, giving you more power and helping you feel less tired.
Better Pressure Distribution
The body is designed to distribute pressure so that your muscles can primarily be concerned with movement.
When the skeletal system becomes misaligned, especially at the joint between the heel and ankle, pressure is no longer distributed across the structures that are most able to deal with it.
Instead, other structures, such as the ligaments in the knees, hips, and ankles, must take on the job and that can lead them to become fatigued, sore, or injured.
Protalus insoles correct the misalignment so you can avoid fatique and injury.

“I love them. Before discovering these Protalus inserts I’d experience severe knee pain. With wearing Protalus inserts in every pair of shoes I own I no longer have any knee pain. I don’t wear shoes without them.” -Donald E.L.
